PHB Dragonborn Breath Weapon (Fix)

By popular demand, here it is!

Several people wanted for this to me made standalone, rather than part of my PHB/Early Access Racial Ability Score revert. While you should still download that and that's how I recommended the game to be played, here's the option to disassociate it from that.

Now fixes the line breath weapons AoE and adds the missing scaling on higher levels!

How to Install

Requires Full Release Mod Fixer

1. Place file into your AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\Mods

2. Activate the mod in Baldur's Gate 3 Mod Manager

3. Export Load Order to game

INSTALLING WITHOUT MOD MANAGER

If the mod manager doesn't work for you or breaks your game, you can install manually with the following steps

3. After placing the file into your Mods folder, go into \AppData\Local\Larian Studios\Baldur's Gate 3\PlayerProfiles\Public

4. Add the following lines to modesettings.lsx (in the <children> element, but after the first <node id="ModuleShortDesc> //some code here </node>

<node id="ModuleShortDesc"> <attribute id="Folder" type="LSWString" value="DragonbornBreathWeaponPHB"/>

<attribute id="MD5" type="LSString" value=""/>

<attribute id="Name" type="FixedString" value="DragonbornBreathWeaponPHB"/>

<attribute id="UUID" type="FixedString" value="e89013f6-7333-4bd9-8a59-d617fad7c204"/>

<attribute id="Version" type="int32" value="32"/>

</node>

5. Set the modesettings.lsx to "Read Only". Otherwise the game will modify it and you'll have to do Step 4 again.

Works on existing saves without issue

SPECIAL THANKS

parklis2 for letting me know Larian didn't do scaling for the breath weapons and providing a save file to test the mod

Lionheart1807 for pointing me in the right direction to solve the scaling issue

Lightning breath is given Lightning Bolt effect, and Fire (line) breath is given Sun Beam effect. I couldn't find or create a better effect for acid, so it's very janky and seemingly random, but occasionally might look okay and improve the look. Functionally though, they work fine.
